The best restaurants serving British food in Wem Shropshire West Midlands

Called in today for a nice lunch, but very dark and uninviting, could it be closed ? Once we were inside we were informed that only coffee was available, no food whatsoever. Having looked at Facebook reviews this place looked great but it turned out to be a waste of a journey so we spent our money elsewhere and will not try again. Very disappointing.

I booked the Moatshed for a surprise 80th birthday party for my mum. We had just over 50 guests and I would say this was a perfect number for the venue. I was given a wide choice of items to create an afternoon tea menu, along with access in the morning to put up decorations. Nothing was too much trouble for the team, even when we had people drop out at the last minute - we were even given one guest's full selection of vegetarian afternoon tea to take home for her, along with a large 'doggy bag of leftovers. They catered for various dietary requirements, including vegan and gluten free, with no problems at all. I cannot praise them all enough - all the staff were a joy to deal, the venue was spotless and we were really looked after.

Our daughter had her wedding here and we came down from Scotland to stay. Selina and staff are absolutely wonderful, nothing is too much trouble, you just need to ask. My daughter is autistic and they accommodated her strange eating habits with no question. The rooms are lovely and clean and the bed so comfortable! If you’re too hot, Selena will give you a fan. They really can’t do enough to help you. We will definitely be back. Thank you Selena and staff for a wonderful stay!

Our second visit which was as good as the first. A great pub that has a mix of walkers/locals etc, very friendly & welcoming. Starters came with a lovely site salad(not the usual lettuce/tomato)but everything & fresh too. A sizzling steak on its way to a customer…we were sold on the smell as it passed by. We ordered ribeye, very nice & you cook it to your liking on the hot stone.

Great food and free refills on Tea/Coffee would def recomend also lovely staff. I go in regularly as its good value for money also 👍.

Good little friendly quiet pub, easy to find and we did a motorhome stopover in the carpark (free if using the pub).

Great all round. Lovely beer, tried two Joules beers, great homemade chicken curry (Wednesday offer for curry and a pint £9:95) Great friendly service. Nice ambience. Looking forward to trying the Sunday Carvery. Five minutes walk from the railway station.

Went to The Bull & Dog @ Coton for Sunday lunch. Country Pub & restaurant are very nice, warm and welcoming, friendly staff and has a wide menu. We opted for the Sunday lunch, I had the roast pork and the wife had roast beef. Plenty of delicious meat, roasters, swede purée, red cabbage, peas, carrots & cheesy creamed leeks and plenty of gravy. Good quality tasty food, competitively priced. Good choices of dessert and a good range of beers. Definitely be going back.

My wife & I booked a meal at The Oak Room, Albrighton Hall Hotel near Shrewsbury, as this was where we had our wedding reception - 20 years ago! The hotel looked magnificent as ever & it was great to visit this stunning venue once again. On arrival, we were greeted by Keah & Alex. Both looked after us brilliantly throughout the evening & knew that it was our wedding anniversary. Both Keah & Alex were so helpful, professional, polite & their level of customer was exceptional. Nothing was every too much trouble, whether it was asking details about the food listed on the dinner menu, taking photos for my wife & I of the evening or generally having a nice conversation about our wedding day & how lovely it was to visit again. The food was absolutely delicious & every course was very well presented. When desserts were ordered, a lovely touch from the chef & staff was an oval plate with two chocolate brownie bites upon it & the words 'Happy 20th Anniversary' underneath in chocolate sauce - wow! It truly made our evening. Thank you so very much to Keah, Alex & the chef at The Oak Room. We will certainly not wait another 20 years to visit you again, as I am sure we will be back over the coming months. Once again, thank you so very much.
